Have breakfast before or after jogging?

besweet @besweet (9859) • Ireland 26 Jan 13

This might be a silly question. I want to start exercising in the morning so.I am thinking that I can go for jogging in the morning. I don't know if I should have breakfast like I always do, before going for a run or after. It is...

Guit08 Honestly, I have done both. It all depends on when you get up. For my earlier runs (around 6 AM), I will just have a granola bar and some water and then head out the door. If I wake up later in the morning (8 or 9 AM), then I'll go ahead and eat a normal...

Guit08 I say that you should go ahead and go to sleep. If you are really feeling tired, then go ahead and turn off the computer and get some rest! The world can wait while you sleep -- it is better to rest your eyes anyway. After all, staring at a computer screen for...

Don't Tweets Each Have an Expiration-Date?

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @mythociate (21432) • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 25 Jan 13

A lot of the kinds of things we are tweeting (on Twitter.com) are often not the kinds of things you want 'recorded for your posterity (your nieces, nephews, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren etc.)' (That--I think--is...

Guit08 Tweets, just like Facebook posts -- or pretty much anything else on the Internet -- are around forever. That is the thing that most people don't think about; Internet users will just go around posting and saying whatever they want, without thinking about the...

Ugh, my typos!

NailTech @NailTech (6874) • United States 26 Jan 13

Don't you just love when you have this new discussion to start and you think you've checked it all over for typos and everything. But as blind as I might be I missed one important one where I had said "cat" instead of "brother"....

Guit08 I always re-read my posts before submitting them to make sure that I haven't spelled anything wrong or used poor grammar. I sure don't want to have any awkward sentence structures, or anything like that! It is a good thing to be concerned about your clarity...

What business can my parents start so they have other things to do at home?

eizshoppe @eizshoppe (40) • Philippines 9 Jan 13

Guit08 If they are artsy, or if they are into making things, then they could always open a shop on Etsy.com. I know somebody who sells handmade items on Etsy, and it is working out quite nicely. Since it is online, there is a wide audience of people that you can sell...

Guit08 Personally, I have never had any problems with the redemption process at SwagBucks. I've been using that website for years and I've redeem TONS of Amazon gift cards and they have all worked... So, if there is an error I don't think that it is them trying to...

Monkeyrose @Monkeyrose (2840) • Canada 26 Dec 12

The Swagbucks Site

dreamertink @dfollin (25351) • United States 26 Dec 12

Guit08 Swagbucks is a great site, and I've received rewards literally totaling hundreds of dollars during my time using the site. My advice would be to just make it a daily thing; make sure you log in at least once a day and do some genuine searches and participate...

Why we say thanks?

csabaholcz @csabaholcz (843) • Hungary 25 Dec 12

Many times on PTC sites forum I see members say "thanks" for their payout. Shouldn't the site say thanks for giving them trust and time for 0.001 cents?

8 responses

Guit08 They're probably just being kind (and they're probably happy that they actually received a payment from the site). PTC sites are usually worth staying away from -- you end up investing a lot of time in them and only making a few bucks (if you're lucky). In...

Guit08 Have you looked into using Etsy.com? It's a great site for people to sell things that they've made. Personally, I know someone who has sold a good amount of things from their Etsy store. It only costs $0.20 to post an item and users can buy your items and pay...

Guit08 It's not just your hardware and connection that may cause your computer to freeze up, it could also be your web browser: the program itself could be hogging resources causing your computer to freeze. What web browser do you use?

Why does a round pizza come in a square box??

kj_cebu18 @kj_cebu18 (30) • Philippines 11 Dec 12

I know this may sound funny but I've thought of this many times and I just really want to know what are your opinions on this matter.. Is there any "good luck" belief of using square figures in business? Please share your...

5 responses

Guit08 Square boxes are easier to make than circular boxes. They can be folded up easily (because they have straight lines and right angles) and they can even be stored flat until they are ready for use and are constructed into a box.
